The Gala
The car stops in front of a huge mansion. It's been decorated gorgeously for today's event. Bella gets down from the car and tries to fix her dress again. It was already a short dress for Serena and judging by their heights it's dangerously short for Bella. She shouldn't have sent those outfits back so soon. She can't believe Serena turned the offer down just like that, leaving her in this mess. Alone. She doesn't even know how to flirt with guys...
Gulping down her breathe, she opens her purse and takes out the card. The guards then let her in. As she walks through the crowd, several people start eyeing her outfit intensely and that makes her feel even more anxious.
She wanders around the huge ballroom trying to find a glimpse of Asher. God knows where he is. From the corner of her eyes she sees a group of women eyeing her while whispering things to each other. She sighs and decides to go somewhere else. As she passes by the corridor a st

Illicit Affairs Make Out
Asher's eyes widen as the realization finally hits him. She's kissing him and it's not in a subtle way...He sighs and gently puts his arms around her body, bringing her closer towards him."Okay then, I won't cause any scene here," He murmurs looking at her face when she finally pulls back."I think I need another drink," She gulps down trying to hide out from the mess. What the hell she has done now..."Don't," He grabs her hands and pulls her closer for a kiss again."Sir?" She gasps out being mortified. This better not become a casual part of their act."Shh. She's looking at us," He whispers and kisses her again."But you're not even facing her this time," She internally screams."I can feel her gaze.""Seriously?" She scoffs looking at the couple behind them...and boy she's really looking at them, with a super annoye

"Wh-why? No...thanks. I can do it on my own." "You can't it's stuck." "Sir!" She internally cries in disbelief. "What? Are you shy in front of me?" "Nn-no." "Weird..." "You're the one who's weird here...Why do you think I would let you unzip my dress?" "Because I wanted to help you?" "I...for God's sake, do not need your help," She throws her hands in the air. "Yes you do," He spins her around and unzips her dress in a swift motion before leaving the room being unbrothered. She stands there in disbelief for few seconds...What the fuck just happened? She groans and steps out of the dress in relief, still trying to process why'd he do that. He even unzips dress in a professional way. He did not touch her skin or anything...He just unzipped her dress like he said he'd do...So chaotic Bella...so chaotic. You better stay away from him. Oh wait congratulations you can't...guess what you're his mistress

Later in the evening after finishing her work in the office, Bella comes back to his apartment. She walks to the kitchen hearing the subtle noises of utensils. Reaching there, she finds Asher making dinner alone. "Why did you leave like that?" She asks him genuinely, placing her handbag on the table. "Like what?" He responds with his deep british accent, still trying hard to act unbothered. "You know what I'm talking about." "Your show off in front of Jennifer was over so I thought of leaving," He mumbles and turns around to open the fridge and bring out the ingredients. "I wasn't acting," She frowns. He stops his movements, looking back at her with confused eyes. "You were supposed to leave today," He changes the topic and focuses on the boiling pasta. "Can I stay here for few more days? My aunt had to get hospitalized and-" "You can," He answers before she could finish her sentence. "Thanks," She sighs in a tight lipped smile. "Maybe go get freshen up, I'll serve the dinne

Illicit Affairs The House
It's been almost three hours and Asher still hasn't showed up in the office today. Bella sits on her desk and bites her nails being nervous. She agreed to help him yesterday. Well it was a clever decision since he said that she doesn't need to finish all of the papers if she agrees to help him. That sounds like a manipulation as well. But...nevermind. She still wonders what his plan is going to be though. Imagine if he asks her to murder his wife? Well no, stop, you're going too far now. She sighs dropping her head on the desk and stays like this for few minuets. But Asher still doesn't show up. She opens her laptop and starts scrolling through his schedules.
